Fraudulent job offers have been made by individuals, organizations, Internet sites or social media accounts that claim they're representing Chevron. In some cases, job seekers are asked to pay a processing or work permit fee (as much as several thousand dollars) in order to begin their job.

These offers are fake and do not originate from Chevron. They are recruitment scams. Chevron never seeks fees from job applicants under any circumstances.
